iMovie for iOS

A major production. Without the major production.

iMovie makes it easy to browse and share the HD video you shoot on your iOS device. Turn your favorite clips into blockbuster movies or Hollywood‑style trailers. And watch your mini‑masterpieces anywhere with iMovie Theater. A few taps, a few swipes, and you’re ready for your big premiere.

Browse

Go straight to video.

If you have an iPhone or iPad, you probably have a lot of great video. And when you want to do something with it, iMovie lets you cut right to the chase. It’s fun and fast to browse, find your favorite clips, and then share them in seconds.

All your scenes. Easily seen.

The full‑screen Video browser showcases your video so you always have the best seat in the house. Simple playback controls let you review your clips in slow motion or fast-forward. And when you find that perfect moment, tap to mark it as a favorite so it’s easy to find later.

Sharing a clip is a snap.

With iMovie, you can share a clip — or a portion of a clip — right from the Video browser without having to create a movie or trailer. Email it, send it in an iMessage, share it on the web, or add it to iMovie Theater along with your other great productions.

Make movies

Thumbs up for easy.

A great movie is right at your fingertips. Just choose a theme and the clips you want to use. Then tap and swipe to edit, add effects, and create a soundtrack. With a 64‑bit architecture and a streamlined look, iMovie makes moviemaking faster and more entertaining than ever. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a wrap.

A finished movie. From the start.

With eight unique themes and 10 beautiful video filters, your movie will look and sound great from the opening credits. Choose a monochromatic theme for drama. Or a travel theme for your most recent adventure. Then take the director’s chair to add matching titles, transitions, and music.

Extra special effects.

Motion picture magic is at your fingertips. Just drag to speed up your clips1 or create stunning slow­motion effects with 120-fps video from iPhone 5s or later. Tap to create cutaways, picture‑in‑picture effects, and split screens. Then use simple Multi‑Touch gestures to resize and reposition them.

You shoot. You score.

It’s never been easier to craft a soundtrack to match your vision. Add background music, sound effects, and voiceover narration to your movie. And with advanced audio tools, you can trim, split, duplicate, and reposition audio anywhere in the timeline.

Create trailers

The feel good trailer of the year.

You have hundreds of videos. And one big dream to make it in the movies.iMovie trailers let you quickly create something fun from all that footage — and make it look like something straight out of Hollywood.

Get your two minutes of fame.

Choose from 14 movie trailer templates in almost every genre: action, documentary, romantic comedy, indie, family, and more. Spectacular titles and graphics soar across the screen, while legendary performers — including the London Symphony Orchestra — provide an original soundtrack.

Make a long story short.

Built‑in templates make it fast and easy to build your big‑screen teaser. Fill in the outline with your movie title, studio logo, and character names. Add videos and photos to the storyboard with animated drop zones that help you find the best clips to ensure that your debut is a hit.
